In the summer of '93 my Father took our family to Boston for a weekend trip, the highlight of which was a Sox vs. Mariners game (1st ever pro ball game, and Fenway!). He was working for Standard Coffee, 3 hrs from home in Braintree to make ends meet, and was a chance for us all to reconnect as a fam. My siblings and I each got $50 to spend over the weekend and at the game (I never had that much money in my young life). I saved it all and bought Griffery's '89 Upper Deck rookie at Ben Franklin's in Gorham, ME (what a card shop that was!). Still worth about $50 today, but priceless because of the association to that weekend and my Father & Mother.
